There are two kinds of alloy steel – low-alloy steel and high-alloy steel. As mentioned earlier, the composition and proportion of alloying elements determine the various properties of alloy steel. Low-alloy steels are the ones that have up to 8% alloying elements whereas high-alloy steels have more than 8% alloying elements.
Alloy steel products and their applications
There are hundreds of products that can be manufactured with alloy steels of varying compositions. These include Stainless Steel Pipe/tubes, alloy steel plates, sheets and coils, alloy steel bars, rods and wires, alloy steel forged fittings, alloy steel buttweld fittings, alloy steel flanges, fasteners and more. Alloy steels have many uses in various industries such as automobiles, mining, machinery and equipment, railways, road construction, buildings, appliances and off-shore applications.
Alloy steel flat products
Alloy steels are used to make flat products – plates and strips. Plates are available in a wide range of grades and sizes. These are used in building construction by welding plates into fabricated sections.
Alloy steel strip and coil products
Strips are available as hot and cold rolled strips and hot-dipped galvanized Stainless Steel Coils. Hot-dipped galvanized coils are used to make construction products that include wall and roof claddings, side rails, roof purlins, light steel frames and lintels.
